Roquefort Blue Cheese Societe Bee (3lb cut) France

This cheese is divine! Very rich, creamy and moist, with the perfect blend of saltiness and sharpness. I will definitely be ordering more!

One of the highest quality cheeses in existence. Bar none. The price at the box stores is through the roof, this was a great hut for the money. Came well packaged in a cooling bubble mailer and box with 5 or 6 ice packs. My kids were drooling as I made the first cut into this hunk of creamy gold. :)

If you aren't a fanatic of Blue Cheese, ridiculed by your family for eating blue cheese by itself or putting it on burgers and salads all the time, then this might not be for you. However, if you have grand ideas about Blue Cheese, listen up. Roquefort is one of the strongest blue cheeses in the world, in fact, many regard it as THE strongest. It's imported from France because if it isn't from France it isn't real Roquefort. Every other time I've gotten Roquefort from other importers and sellers, there's always this thick, viscous goop that causes me to have to slice off portions of the cheese in order for it to be edible - which you can do, of course, but it isn't why I buy 3 pounds of cheese. This half wheel of Roquefort came in absolutely pristine condition and, even though the ice packs were completely melted by the time I got it, was still in great condition and quite cool as well. It's soft and crumbly yet firm to cut, making it easy to use in recipes or eat paired with a nice glass of port, which I highly recommend, since it compliments the flavors pristinely. I know I sound like I'm trying to sell this myself, but frankly I have been so disheartened with the condition of other sellers and I am so pleased with this one. I've never heard great praises of Societe Bee but I'm a believer. Seriously, do yourself a favor and eat a piece of this with some port.

Very good cheese and will buy again

I was originally introduced to this cheese in France (of course), while touring the caverns where it is made. Roquefort Blue Cheese is like blue cheese on steroids. I'll warn you, it's not for everyone. It's intense, but delicious. I had my first taste of it at the Roquefort cheese caverns in Roquefort, France. It comes in three different... strengths: mild, medium and strong. The mild was in a white packaging, medium was in green and strong was in a black package. At the factory, they gave me a sample of it served on sweet date bread. I was instantly hooked. I took home the variety pack of all three strengths. The one i purchased one here on Amazon (green packaging) the medium-strength version. The weird thing is I never liked blue cheese dressing at all, but for some crazy reason, I loved Roquefort cheese. This was all new to me, and when I inquired about it, the French cashier at the caverns told me Societe was the best brand (of course it was THEIR brand, so they may have been a little biased). Either way, I was thrilled to find it available here on Amazon. I don't have to pay the roundtrip plane ticket and tour bus fare to go get it in Roquefort, FR - lol.

this is my second choice for the best blue cheese almost to the point of very little difference between the two best I like to eat it as a dessert cheese with green grapes or apples and blue berries

We buy this often enough to never run out as we have salad which is more like charcuterie daily. Being in a small town in Montana, we haven’t access to good cheese or salami. We count on Amazon for both. Cow’s milk cheese doesn’t agree with me so not only is this delicious but also easy for me to digest.

This is my favorite brand of Roquefort cheese — Perfect flavor and buttery texture. Made from raw ewes milk and cave aged, as required by law. The cheese was evenly and densely veined with colorful penicillium mold. Not overly salty, with better balanced flavor than another brand I tried. Price was reasonable too, and cheese arrived in perfect condition. My only regret is I probably should have ordered a whole wheel instead of a half.
